Church of Saint Joseph, Classicist parish church in Štítná nad Vláří, Zlín District, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Joseph is a Neoclassical single-nave building with a semicircular presbytery and a front square tower topped by a dome. It measures 38 m long, 12.3 m wide and 14.5 m high, with smooth facades and a saddle roof. Inside are a carved pulpit, a Rosary Madonna side altar and a 1938 terracotta Stations of the Cross.

The church was built between 1784 and 1787 as the seat of a new local chaplaincy created after the villages of Jestřabí, Popov and Štítná nad Vláří were separated from the Brumov parish. Its interior furnishings came from the abolished Church of St Roch in Jarošov. It became a parish church on 13 September 1856, and in 1941 the original shingle roof was replaced with fired tiles.

The church is dedicated to Saint Joseph, whose death is depicted in a sculpture by Joseph Unsterberg of Gmünd that replaced a Baroque painting on the main altar in 1895. The side altar was dedicated to Saint Anne from 1874 until its removal after 1958. A carved pulpit and a terracotta Stations of the Cross from 1938 remain in the interior.

The church stands at the edge of the village by the Zelenský stream, about 4 km southwest of Brumov-Bylnice's centre. The cemetery with its modern ceremonial hall lies on the north side. The building is a protected cultural monument, so visits are best timed around services.

The single bell that survived both world wars is the umíráček, cast in 1682; the other three bells were requisitioned and replaced in 1956. The church also keeps seven protected statues of saints, including Saint Roch and Saint Sebastian, and a terracotta Stations of the Cross from 1938.
